50 in 2016!!!!

[pdm66]

Yep the big 50 is coming up in 2016 and I would love to lose some weight...and continue to... starting in the new year so I am going to do the 12 week plans and join the round the world too. hope to see lots of company and lose some weight. Fifty, fit and fabulous will be my theme for 2016 got about 6 - 7 stones to lose but one day at a time, first target is 5% starting on the 4th Jan with the Monday Weigh ins.

Scary but exciting.

Love you motto ❤

Glad you're joining us on the world trip, it'll be so motivational and fun 😊

And don't look at the total weight - set little goals that can be achieved easier 🏁

Thank you starting with 5% loss

Good luck

Small maintainable changes and check your portion control and before you know it the lbs will start melting away.

Hi Pdm66,

Great that you're starting on 4th January, and you've got some excellent targets and your 50th Birthday to work towards.

2016 could definitely be your year, and you'll be 'fit and fabulous' and feeling good!

Look forward to catching up with you in the Monday weigh-in.

50, fit and fabulous sounds like a great theme for 2016 pdm and that positive attitude of yours is going to see you winging your way toward your goal at a rate of knots

I'm going to borrow your idea and use 2016 as prep time for my super, sexy and slim 60th in 2017

Hi, I am 50 in 2016 ( 1966 was a good year lol) and I too need to get the weight off. Have done lots of diets and managed to get the weight off but stress has meant that I have piled on about 4 stone. I am so not going to be fat and fifty! Will be joining the Monday weigh in (with eyes shut at first after Christmas holiday away). I wish everyone success on their journey and hope to be making progress with you all this coming year.

Ever hopeful.

[pdm66 in reply to Saga66]

Excellent news, mine is in 8 weeks time so not long but hope to lose at lease 10lbs in that time and spend the rest of 2016 making some good habits and decisions. We can do it. I know it is easier said than done but hey you know what they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

We can do it and have a happy new year everyone.
